'64 Dart questions

definitely go with the 8 3/4" rear end. i have a pretty mild 360 in my 64 and it had NO PROBLEM toasting the original 7 14" rear. i think a worn out /6 could probably toast a 7 1/4" -- its one of the smallest and weakest-looking rears i've ever seen in an automobile.

i found a used 8 3/4" on ebay, it was complete drum to drum, in very good shape, for a little over $500 shipped from cali to ohio. it supposedly came out of a 70 dart and bolted right up to my 64. it had small bp axles tho. easily replaced, but more $$$. the seller's name is empiriverside, he said he had a bunch of a-body 8 3/4"s. very good seller too, highly recommended.
